Since Facebook won't let me post this picture and I find it amusing, here it is.  I found this when I typed in "lead a horse to water".  I don't know who the photographer was but if you are that person is and want photo credits, just let me know.

Can anyone blame this donkey for not wanting to jump into the trash filled pond.

Rear navigator platform for Pacific Training cart for sale.  Purchased new in 2006 and used in 1 show and for a few months around the farm.  Moved to a 4 wheel for everyday driving and I only use the Pacific for young horses and presentation.  It's been kept inside and is in good condition.  New they are $595 plus shipping and tax.  I am asking $500.

Over 70 riders rode in the 2009 Woodford Hounds Blessing of the Hounds hunt held on November 28th, 2009 at Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill.  The vivid colors of the huntsman and horses could be seen winding their way across the Shaker Village property.  It was impressive to watch.

What a perfect day for a ride.  The Kentucky Diehard Endurance ride, held on the gorgeous Shaker Village grounds, was a venue to appreciate.  Having been there in years past where it was raining, freezing or snowing, I am sure moving the ride from December into November was much appreciated by all of the competitors and volunteers today.
